Raised the banner today! I decided to leave "as is" for the most part, because it fits nicely on the wall opposite our office space. Now I can wheel around in the desk chair and soak up that early 1900's Coca-Cola vibe. Framer did a very nice job. He really hit the mark in reproducing 1" of the border on the missing end to finish it off (tan matte and spray paint!). Took 2 months to get a piece of plexi measuring 16" x 117" delivered, apparently they don't have that size laying around at the glass manufacturer. It was worth the wait. I'm happy with the way this piece displays.

scottvez, 5 years agoIs the reproduced section just laying under the old?

It seems to blend in well.

hotkitties, 5 years agoLooks awesome! I love the chairs, too! Good job ;)

Daddy_Nobucks, 5 years agoScott - yes, the not glued or anything, just in there freely. The guy did an incredible job matching it.

Hi hotkitties! Thank you. And I will pass on your comment about the chairs to my wife. We have a whole set from her grandparents and use them throughout our basement (aka Coke Cave!). She loves them and I should appreciate them more, I know! :)

pickrknows, 5 years agoLooks awesome Dave, you're right,the framer was excellent, nice job with the entire piece! The room looks super, and your new addition is the "icing" . Nice collection buddy. Hope you and your family have a great Christmas!

Daddy_Nobucks, 5 years agoThanks Bernie! And thank you for the nice card. Susan and I really appreciate the gesture, it added to our seasonal joy. Merry Christmas to you and your family, Sir.

Daddy_Nobucks, 5 years agoThanks Ray. Yes, patching the end was a good idea... let's see, who was that dude that suggested it... hmmm... Ring Size... nah... Sun Rise... uh...KingPrize something-or- other...? :)

Signaholic, 5 years agoLOL, Looks fantastic Dave! Perfect for the wall and room. That is a loud and proud Mantique right there, allll day long!

Daddy_Nobucks, 5 years agoThanks Perry. This one does sorta make... a statement. Not sure exactly what... maybe "HERE I AM!!!!" :) I like what Bernie said, it's the icing. That means I must be done with the cake. Did someone say put a Cherry on Top?????

Signaholic, 5 years agoOh, don't tell your wife but I don't think you're ever really done Dave.
I think you still have a lot of room left on them walls and that could be bad or good thing dependin who yer talkin to.;)

cocacolakid97, 5 years agoMan, I wish it was done when I was over. Looks really nice!

tommy1002, 5 years agoDefinitely looks great Dave!! The whole room is looking good and still plenty of room for the "fillers", lol.

Daddy_Nobucks, 5 years agoThanks Tommy! As you know, those Little Fillers are just as - if not more- expensive than the Big Daddies! I do appreciate your kind words, and wish you and your family the happiest holidays ever.

bkdavis, 5 years agoVery nice. Good choice on leAving mostly as-is. By the way, Pepsi is better. Just kidding.

Daddy_Nobucks, 5 years agoHey, high praise indeed from a Pepsi Guy, Thanks BK!

zguy2112, 4 years agoOne of the nicest Coca-Cola advertising signs I have ever seen! Very simple yet tasteful. GREAT size as well. Beautiful find! Enjoy it.

Daddy_Nobucks, 4 years agoThanks zguy! I do enjoy This Old Sign as one of my favorites. I appreciate the comment, and it provided me an opportunity to check out your magic posters collection. Very cool. Works of art.

zguy2112, 4 years agoThanks Daddy, I appreciate you looking. I have a passion for original stone lithographs, especially Magic posters. Glad you liked them.
